After thinking about these issues, Shuvalov's mood became very bad. He didn't feel at all that Count Rostovtsev was so good at "promoting his noble hand" before. If possible, he felt that he was not as good as the imperial envoy Count.
Expose everything and let it go as it should!
But this thought only happened for a moment, and Count Shuvalov immediately put aside this childish and ridiculous thought. If Count Rostovtsev really did that, I am afraid that what awaits him is prison.
Disaster.
At that time, he had no future at all, and although he is remembered by Nicholas I now, it is estimated that he is unlikely to have a future during the reign of the Tsar. But at least you can wait for him to grow up!
As long as Nicholas I dies and is replaced by Crown Prince Alexander as the Tsar, wouldn't he be able to make a comeback at that time. Although it will take some time, it is better than being directly eliminated, right?
Anyway, Count Shuvalov no longer has any plans in Kiev. He just wants to return to St. Petersburg to make the necessary preparations for his dormant career.
He knows very well that this period of dormancy is very critical. If you are not prepared, it will be very difficult to make a comeback in the future. After all, officialdom is a place where people are easily forgotten. A few years of dormancy is enough to make people all over the world forget you.
It was at this time that Count Shuvalov received the order from Count Uvarov. Although he did not understand what Count Uvarov asked him to investigate, it was a good thing for him after all.
After all, this means that Count Uvarov has not forgotten him, still remembers him as a number one person, and is willing to continue to use him.
For a moment, Count Shuvalov's eyes filled with tears. Only you who have experienced despair can understand how warm hope is.
After realizing that he was still useful to Count Uvarov, Count Shuvalov almost jumped three feet in the air. He knew that if he performed well, he might have a chance to get better dormant treatment.
It's just that the things Count Uvarov asked him to check made him feel troublesome. He didn't give any clues or specific strategies, leaving everything to him to discover by himself. Count Shuvalov felt that Count Uvarov
Do you think too highly of him? Have you misunderstood his abilities?
However, regardless of such misunderstanding, the greater the ability, the greater the value of use. It is better than being thrown away as garbage!
But how to check?
Count Shuvalov thought about the manpower he could mobilize in Kiev, and felt increasingly embarrassed. There was almost no one available. He couldn't let him, a bare commander, investigate like a headless fly, right? That would mean that the investigation would last forever.
There will be no results.
However, Count Shuvalov was still a bit impatient. He began to look at his actions from beginning to end from a new perspective to see where there might be problems.
Don't tell me, he immediately found the situation on the day of the prison escape that he had never concluded. It was obvious that there must be something wrong with Bruning. How could it be so coincidental that a group of uninvited guests appeared on the road and gave him a well-planned operation?
All mixed up?
Count Shuvalov had also thought about this issue before. He initially thought that there was something wrong with Petrovna. He thought that this woman might have realized that he wanted to kill someone and silence her, so he deliberately colluded with Bruning to kidnap Fioning.
Negotiate terms with him.
However, as the situation developed later, this possibility became infinitely small and impossible. Otherwise, everything that followed would be impossible to explain.
Count Shuvalov has been trying to figure out which hero ruined his good deeds, but after a long investigation, he could not find this group of people at all. Bruning and Fioning disappeared out of thin air, and even
Bruning's family disappeared.
It was obvious that the other party had erased all traces, leaving him unable to investigate. Now Count Uvarov asked him to investigate the hidden forces behind the scenes, and he immediately thought of the mysterious prison robbers who led this case to a completely different direction.
He knew that these people were probably affiliated with the mastermind behind the scenes. If he could catch their tail, everything might be solved.
Shuvalov thought for a while and felt that there should be no problem in this direction, but how to proceed is a big problem. Because when the crime occurred, he did not leave even a single prison robber behind. They disappeared quickly and there were no clues at all.
Can be checked.
This made Count Shuvalov very crazy. The clues were obviously there, but he was completely unable to pierce the window paper. This feeling was so disgusting.
After a long while, he sighed leisurely and muttered to himself: "It seems that we must meet Petrovna and see what that woman knows!"
Count Shuvalov would not be willing to deal with Petrovna if he had no other choice, because he knew that this woman hated him to the core, and trying to pry her mouth open would have to pay a high price, especially now that she is still seeking refuge.
Having lost the Grand Duke Constantine, I am afraid it will be even more difficult for her to deal with that Grand Duke.
But no matter how difficult it is, Count Shuvalov can only bite the bullet and give it a try, not only because this is his only clue, but more importantly, it is also related to his future. He dares to do anything for the future.
Can bear it.
"Your Excellency, I heard that you have been very busy recently! You came to me in such a hurry, what can I say?"
Petrovna did not expect that Count Shuvalov would suddenly send her a message through Ravel and ask for a meeting. Knowing Shuvalov well, she immediately realized that this matter might not be simple.
But she actually didn't want to go. Even though the case had been closed, she seemed to be acquitted, but Anton told her that this was just a superficial phenomenon. She had already made a mark in Nicholas I's mind, and she wanted to go now.
Opening a church in St. Petersburg is a suicide attempt.
Anton also warned her to keep a low profile as much as possible in the past year, otherwise when the news of the case passed, Nicholas I, who was unhappy with her, would really let the third film kill her.
Petrovna didn't dare not listen to these warnings, because she was very afraid of the power of Anton's group. Such a big case can be fooled in that way, and it can be picked out for her, what kind of ability is this?
?
She only wants to climb up the ladder and become the king of social butterflies, but she also knows that her methods are child's play compared to those of others, so she must not turn a deaf ear to other people's warnings.
And the most important thing is that even if Petrovna wanted to be active, she couldn't do it. The whole Kiev was so upset by this case. A large number of nobles were expelled, which made the entire circle become lifeless and there was no one at all.
Dare to jump out and wander around. After all, Count Rostovtsev has not left yet. Who knows whether the imperial envoy can still lift a forty-meter sword...
